    KAIDEN STIRLING


    “I try to hate you. Sometimes, I’m able to. Other times, I can’t,” she said and I was filled with


    surprise. Why was she telling me this? She was not supposed to be telling me this. That only further


    proved how drunk she was. I was worried about the quantity of alcohol she had consumed for her to


    be this drunk. Had she been drinking with that human male? Why on earth had he let her drink so


    much?


    An acidic wave of jealousy flooded my stomach and I immediately started to feel sick.


    “Focus on me, Kaiden. Just this once. Don’t get lost in thoughts while I’m here,” she said in a


    pleading tone and I was not sure why her words hurt me so much. It was either the fact that she


    said ‘just this once’ or the way she was begging for me, like a part of her knew I was not going to


    answer her.


    I looked at her. “You’re drunk, Freda. Stop talking,” I told her, smoothing her hair back. I did not want


    her telling me things that would make her way to avoid me. The things she was saying were things I


    knew she would have liked to keep buried in the deepest parts of her.


    “I’m not drunk,” she said and moved in closer to me. My breathing picked up and my heart went


    crazy in my chest. “F- Freda…” I said through a slow breath. She smiled at me, as though she knew


    the effect she had on me, the power she had over me, over my d**d soul.

    I cleared my throat, and she watched as my throat bobbed from my swallowing. “What would you do


    if I asked you to kiss me?” She asked, looking into my eyes like she did not want to miss a single


    emotion that would go through me. I didn’t think she would be able to read whatever she saw


    because my emotions were all over the da**n ce… Haywire.


    “Freda, stop,” I said through a breath. “Why?” She asked, a challenging look in her eyes. It was no


    longer the softness of her walls being let down because she was drunk and half- asleep. It was


    something fiery.


    “You’re suddenly honorable? I’m some drunk damsel in distress and you don’t want to take


    advantage of me?” She questioned. Her words both hurt and surprised me.


    I should not have been surprised though. She was trying to hate me, and the words she was


    speaking were proof of that. I started to nack away from her. I needed to leave before something we


    would both hate ourselves for would happen.


    She grabbed my hand in a soft grip,pared to the look in her eyes. “Let go, Freda,” I said. She


    shook her head.


    “I hit a little too close to home, didn’t I?” She asked and I watched her silently. “It upsets you that I’m


    no longer that naive girl you always took advantage of, the one you lured to your bed. The one you


    hurt countless times,” she said and tears filled her eyes.


    F**g hell.


    “Stop, I need to go,” said, not answering any of her hurtful words. “Stay,” she said. Her voice was


    broken and she was sobbing. I stared at her, conflicted and confused. “What do you

    want me to do, Freda? Your words sound like you want me to leave but you’re asking me to stay,” I


    whispered, fighting tears of my own.


    “I’m sorry. I… I just want to hurt you,” she cried and I shook my head, pulling her close to me,


    despite the urge to leave the bed. “I’m sorry,” she cried. “I’m so sorry.”


    I shook my head and wrapped my arms around her the best I could. She was warm and her


    shoulders were shaking from her hard sobs. My heart was breaking to pieces. “You can say


    whatever you feel you need to say, Freda. I deserve it,” I whispered in her ear and she cried some


    more before she was able to gather herself together.


    “You don’t deserve it. No one deserves that,” she said, pulling back to look at me. “You know I do,


    Freda,” I said with a small smile.


    “We shouldn’t be here,” she said, pressing her head against my chest. I was embarrassed by how


    hard and how fast my heart was beating because of how close she was.


    “I know,” I said with a weary sigh, worried that she would ask me to go away.


    “You have a wife… Who is my sister. This is wrong,” she whispered. “I know,” I said, kissing her


    forehead.


    “I rejected you. I can’te back,” she whispered again and my heart broke. I said nothing because


    I could not confirm that.


    I stayed silent, listening to her heartbeats and she said nothing too. Her breaths calmed and took a


    steady rhythm, telling me she had fallen asleep.
